Probabilistic Sampling

his assignment requires a minimum of 60-70 jellybeans.

Part 1: Describe the Population.

• How many total jellybeans do you have?
• What % of jellybeans are of each color? (Classify all jellybeans using only the following colors to: Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, White, Pink, Orange, Brown/Black, Purple)

Part 2: Generating Samples

Using each of the following probabilistic sampling methods, generate samples of 20-30 jellybeans.

• Simple Random Sampling
• Systematic Sampling
• Cluster Sampling
• Stratified Random Sampling

Perform the following steps for each of the 4 sampling procedures:

• Take Pictures to document the sampling procedures.
• Include text descriptions of the procedures by which you drew each sample.
• How many jellybeans are in your sample? What % of jellybeans are of each color?
• How does this compare to the color distribution of the total population?

Once you have drawn 4 samples (one using each of the methods described above), and have described them according to the above outline – write a few concluding sentences comparing the sampling methods and identifying which method produced a sample that was most similar to the total population. You can assemble your work in a word doc or a powerpoint, which you must submit on blackboard by the due date/time.

Lastly, please record the number of jellybeans of each color that were drawn using each sampling method, in this form: uploaded info
